Waited until I could watch 2 episodes at once.
I find most of the Star Wars movies difficult to go back and watch due to the god awful dialog. And I despise 95% of all super hero movies. This was like a super hero TV series set in the Star Wars universe . But I thought it was OK ((thankfully no Marvel-esque fart jokes). Not nearly as great as some of the hype. But decent enough I’ll continue to watch. Not sure I would have predicted it if all the reviews didn’t state that there was a surprise at the end of chapter 1, but I figured out what the surprise was going to be about halfway through chapter 1.
Marvel-esque fart jokes? Can you name an example or two off the top of your head? Because I'm thinking back all the way to Iron Man and I'm struggling to think of a fart joke in any MCU movie.
Well, I'll tell you what, as I was sitting through episode 1 of The Mandalorian I was thinking to myself... damn, who in the hell could this bounty be? Somebody we already know? Anyway I was genuinely and very pleasantly surprised! I got to tell you I was not expecting that! To be perfectly honest I am pretty sure nobody called that it would be
Episode 2 I liked a lot, not as much as the first, but I loved that the baby used the force on that critter to stop it from killing the Mandalorian. Pretty epic stuff. Also I like the grittier tone of this series where the Mandalorian's ship is actually being stripped by the Jawas and he has to work his ass off to catch up with them and try to get his shit back. Baby Yoda eating a crunchy frog from Monty Python was pretty hilarious.
the pod is following the mandalorian around. but, like, in everyday situations: the mandalorian is buying groceries, the mandalorian is showering (with helmet still on), the mandalorian is out for a jog, and in all of these the pod is trundling along after him.
An actual showdown with an AT-ST. There was a time not-so-long-ago when they would have had to kind of vaguely hint that the walker was there and edit around it.

God dammit I can't wait for the episode where (I hope) The Mandalorian has a showdown with Boba Fett.

He dead.
The Mandalorian could be called “The show staring characters who look like other characters you like who are unfortunately dead at this point in time.”
